COACH SANDRA TURNS 50 IN STYLE

MBABANE – A surprise birthday fit for a queen.

Age is just a number and you are only as old as you feel. One’s age should not be a limiting factor to living and enjoying a fit life. This was according to fitness coach and bodybuilder Sandra Groening, who is the founder of the Fit Swazi Fitness Factory located in Manzini. She has been a sportsperson for over half her age and despite being halfway to a century, she looks young, strong and energetic. 

Groening turned 50 in a stylish event celebrated with her fit family at the gym premises on Friday evening. The colour red, which in modern times is commonly associated with passion, love and joy, was the order of the day as the gym was decorated with red roses, balloons and to sum it all up, the members wore red t-shirts that were boldly inscribed ‘Happy 50th Birthday’.

The birthday celebration started off with a training session before the cutting of the cake. Celebrating her birthday in the gym was in line with her passion and dedication to helping people transform their lives for the better.

“I aspire to help transform people’s lives by sharing my experiences, knowledge and passion so that they could find their own self. Over the last decade of my life, I have ventured into various fitness activities but my passion has always been in the gym,” said Groening.

When asked about the most special gift she has ever received on her birthday, Groening said it was her gym.

“A memorable birthday gift I ever received was in 2017. The official opening of the Fit Swazi Fitness Factory, reason being that it has always been my dream for many years and this dream has given me a special birthday gift today, a surprise gym 50th birthday celebration. I am humbly honoured,” said Groening.

She shared her secret to health through fitness and maintaining a consistent and balanced healthy lifestyle through regular exercise and nutrition.

“Burpees and eating lots of spinach are my secrets to turning back the age clock,” she said.
